Who it’s for

Who benefits most from Starlink?

Three Canadian profiles where satellite internet makes a real difference.

Rural Canadian home

You live in rural Canada

No fibre, no cable, just a tired DSL line? Starlink delivers 100 to 250 Mbps stable speeds, no contract, from day one. Often the first viable option for truly fast internet anywhere outside cities.

Canadian cottage in winter

You have a cottage

With the Roam plan and Standby Mode at $15/month off-season, you pay only for the months you use. A cottage used 5 months costs about $540/year total, including the pause months.

RV on the road at sunset

You travel in an RV

The Mini dish with Roam Unlimited gives you internet anywhere in Canada (and the US). Remote work, family entertainment, video calls from the road. Fits in a backpack.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The questions we get asked most often. For the full list of 50+ questions, see our complete FAQ.

How much does Starlink cost in Canada in 2026?

The Residential 100 plan costs $75 CAD/month, the most popular option. Residential Unlimited is $115/month. Roam plans range from $75 (50GB) to $200 (Unlimited). The Standard dish is $349 CAD one-time, or you can rent it for $15/month on Residential plans.

Does Starlink work at -30°C?

Yes. The dish has a built-in heater that automatically melts snow and ice. Tested down to -55°C in NWT and -45°C in Yukon. Canadian users report excellent reliability even at the peak of winter.

Is Starlink available everywhere in Canada?

Yes for 99% of populated areas including all 10 provinces, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and southern Nunavut. Some southern cities have a Residential waitlist but Roam is always available immediately. See full coverage.

Which dish should I choose: Standard or Mini?

For a permanent home, choose the Standard Gen 3 which offers the best speeds. For a cottage, RV, or seasonal use, go with the Mini: smaller, lower power draw (great for solar), performance is sufficient for most uses. Detailed comparison.

Is there a long-term contract?

No. Starlink is month-to-month. You can cancel or pause anytime. Standby Mode costs $15/month and keeps your dish associated with your account, ideal for a cottage used only in season.

How do I install Starlink myself?

Installation is designed to be done in under an hour with no technician. You pick a spot with clear sky view, mount the dish, route the cable, and set up via the app. The step-by-step guide.
